Python 2.4 In Oz 3.5.3 Options

[jh]

Hi,

I'm writing an app for my C1k + OZ 3.5.3 with python and have stumbled across a few things that needed tweaks, and one thing I can't get past:

I'm using urllib which imports cookielib which imports logging which imports calendar which imports datetime (whew!) all of which are missing (other than urllib) from the python-2.4.1-manifest.inc for the netclient package.

Adding them to the package has been easy (patch is trivial but I can generate it if needed) except for datetime which is a compiled library. I noticed that none of the .so files that should be in lib-dynload are actually there. Checking the log reveals:

CODE

-o build/lib.linux-i686-2.4/datetime.so                                                                                                          
*** WARNING: renaming "datetime" since importing it failed: build/lib.linux-i686-2.4/datetime.so: ELF file OS ABI invalid                        

This is an up-to-date (r237) bitbake, latest pull from bk, using openzaurus-3.5.3 as the distro in my local.conf.

Thanks!

That's just a packaging problem, not a build problem. I've checked in a fix for that:

http://openembedded.bkbits.net:8080/openem...l|ChangeSet@-1h

Could you give that a try?

That gets datetime and all the rest in there. One more tweak for cookielib:

CODE

${libdir}/python2.4/_LWPCookieJar.* ${libdir}/python2.4/_MozillaCookieJar.*

After that it looks great. Thanks!!
